Keboola is clearing legacy plumbing so its AI agent has a clean platform to run on.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus and OpenCTI — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.
RecoveryManager Plus is a backup-and-recovery tool for Active Directory and Microsoft 365, and it is the most feature-active of the ManageEngine set here. Recent builds add real backup coverage — AD sites and subnets, Entra ID local admin passwords, S3-compatible repositories, SIEM audit forwarding, and Entra ID BitLocker recovery keys — alongside CVE patches and RemCom agent hardening. Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.

OpenCTI ships near-daily, steering security coverage and AI work through XTM One.
OpenCTI is on a calendar-versioned release train, often several builds a week, mixing analyst-facing features with heavy test, stream, and CI hardening. The newest build adds quota and feedback to the embedded chatbot and one-click investigation duplication, and fixes stream-processing and security-coverage bugs. The LTS line just took a security sweep covering access control and public dashboards.

Build 6322 is the quietest of the run: a single fix for restarts triggered by an outdated ExchangeOnlineManagement PowerShell module during Microsoft 365 enumeration.
The direction is coverage expansion: methodically extending what can be backed up and restored across on-prem AD and Entra ID, while broadening cloud storage targets and operational integrations. The dependence on Microsoft's own PowerShell modules is the cost of that coverage, and 6322 shows where it bites — a stale module on the customer's side takes the product down mid-enumeration. Feature builds and pure-fix builds alternate at roughly a two-month cadence, so a single-issue build reads as a gap between feature cycles rather than a slowdown.
Expect continued expansion of Entra ID and cloud-native backup coverage and more storage-target options, with security patches folded into each build; the next build carrying a Features section is due on the cadence this feed has held.

Two threads keep tightening. Security coverage is becoming a hands-on workflow, with manual coverage entities, re-linkable TTPs, and now fixes so enrichment no longer wipes results. The AI layer is maturing from a feature into a managed service, routed through XTM One and now showing users their quota and keeping their feedback.
Expect more chatbot controls (quotas, usage, feedback loops) and further security-coverage fixes, alongside continued LTS security backports on the 7.2608 line.
